Meet Dr. Farina

Your smile is my business. It’s what I do every day and why I chose to become an orthodontist more than 30 years ago. It’s why I love what I do. To date, I’ve treated more than 10,000 smiles, from children as young as six to adults as wise as 82, and many teens in between. Whether I am caring for a patient in the office or donating my time to a child in the community, it’s the same feeling. There’s no greater joy for me than to see a happy, healthy smile I helped come true.

After nearly four years, my son Juan David got his braces off, and we couldn’t be happier with his smile! We visited several offices before finding Dr. Pedro Farina, who was honest about how challenging the treatment would be and willing to take on his case.Juan started at 11 and is now 15. Every appointment and every effort were worth it. Thank you, Dr. Farina and your team, for your patience and dedication. Seeing my son so happy with his smile means so much to me. Highly recommend! ❤️

Hoy le retiraron los brackets a mi hijo Juan David después de casi cuatro años de tratamiento, y estoy demasiado feliz y agradecida con el doctor Pedro Farina y todo su equipo.Juan comenzó con 11 años y hoy tiene 15. Antes de llegar aquí, visitamos otros consultorios donde nos dijeron con sinceridad que no sabían cómo abordar su caso. También agradezco esa honestidad, porque nos llevó al lugar correcto.Desde el principio, el doctor Pedro fue claro: no sería fácil. Nos explicó que necesitaríamos paciencia y compromiso con las citas y con todo el proceso, pero que él estaba dispuesto a asumir el reto. Y nosotros dijimos que sí.Fueron años de constancia y muchos recuerdos. Juan David decía: “Yo nací así y Dios sabrá por qué. A mí no me importa”. Pero también investigaba y llegaba a sus citas con ideas: “Doctor, ¿y si me saca unos dientes para que los demás se puedan alinear?”. Siempre quería participar y entender lo que estaban haciendo.Su tratamiento requirió cinco extracciones. Y, a pesar de lo pequeño que estaba cuando comenzó, nunca dijo que no ni se quejó de dolor. Como mamá, me siento muy orgullosa de cómo vivió todo este proceso.Hoy lo veo sonreír, feliz con sus resultados, y siento que cada cita y cada esfuerzo valieron la pena. Lo que más me emociona es verlo tan contento con su sonrisa.Comparto las fotos del antes y el después porque muestran este camino mejor que cualquier explicación. Y si otra familia está buscando ayuda para un caso difícil, quisiera decirle que siga preguntando y buscando opciones. A veces hace falta tocar varias puertas hasta encontrar al profesional que pueda acompañarnos.Gracias de corazón, doctor Pedro, por aceptar el reto, por su sinceridad desde el primer día y por acompañarnos durante estos casi cuatro años. ¡Qué alegría llegar hasta aquí y ver a Juan David sonriendo así! ❤️
